EY
Treasury roles are expanding. More so than ever before, treasurers and treasury executives have a
full suite of responsibilities – the management of cash, working capital, liquidity, and credit. They
must add value to earnings, cash flow, market share, and competitive advantage. They must under-
stand and incorporate new and revised regulations and accounting guidance. The list goes on.

tion now takes a key seat at the decision-making table. Success is achieved when the treasury
function is fully integrated and relied upon to strategically grow a global business. We work side by
side with our client to help define the right processes and structure. With our skills, tools, and ac-
celerators, together we can tailor and customize services to achieve your definition of success. Let
us help you keep up with change – both within your own business and within the overall
